Best,

Thank you for your invitation of friendship. There are so many things to say but all seem so empty compared to what you have been through.

Thank you for accepting my friendship, and all of the moral support that everyone has given to me. My book had to be listed as fiction, but the whole story is true, I had to change the names.

Thanks for being my new friend. It takes a strong person to relive the things that you have been though. I take my hat off to you. You a special person.

I have a family member who has been diagnosed bi-polar ADHD and can understand the gravity of this dynamic on family. It is exceptionally hard at times.

What I find is that one has to continuously work on getting stronger inside to deal with the realities of living with a BP person.

Through natural means, it is not easy, but we are seeing progress and have lots of hope.

Blessings to you.

At 4:08pm on August 16, 2007, Dahris H. Clair said…: Donna, I empathize with your anguish and pain. My daughter attempted to take her life two years ago. Not a teenager, but a 35-year-old young woman suffering from end-stage renal disease and the numerous complications of a lifetime of Type I Diabetes. It was the call to 911 by a suspicious friend that saved her. She suffers from chronic depression as well as her phisical disabilities, yet goes to work as a server four and five nights a week. She returns home and must hook up the dialysis machine for twelve hours. Because she attempted to take her own life, the transplant team has penalized her and refused to put her on the list for a kidney for another year. There are 92,000 on the list and the wait is three to four years. She knows and I know that she probably won't make it. It is harder for her than for me because it's her life, but she's my baby. If it were not for my involvement with Florida Writers Association and the additional things I throw myself into, I would lapse into major depression too.

Being a parent is a very difficult job. I have a son with AIDS. He has asked me to write my life story for just the reason you have written your book: to help others in similar situations by revealing our feelings and reactions, how we came to terms with what we couldn't change. I have a lot of faith. I'm not a
Bible thumper by an stretch of the imagination, but I have a strong belief and faith that God knows best and will be our constant support and guide. God bless you, and I am happy to be your friend.

I hope that your book helps to encourage others who may be dealing with depression as well, and incite them to seek the help they need, so they're not going it alone. All the best, Ceci
